Hi! My name is Kimberly, and I am an LCSW. I'm so glad you took the first step of reaching out for support! Inviting someone into your most personal space can be intimidating, scary, and daunting, but despite that, here you are! Difficult experiences in life can bring up feelings of anxiety, depression, or lack of direction, making it hard to know what to do. With compassion and honesty, I will help you to work through issues while identifying your inner strengths to be a happier and healthier version of yourself. We will work together to move past obstacles so you can take steps to achieve your goals. I want the therapeutic process to feel helpful and worthwhile. I work with sincerity, compassion, and nonjudgment. I will provide a nurturing environment where you can talk candidly about your concerns. I look forward to exploring this journey with you!
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
I encourage you to actively participate in your treatment with my support throughout the therapeutic process. I aim to provide a confidential space to help you and your family to find a positive growth and well-being path. I will be there to support and guide you along your individualized journey.
What treatment methods and tools do you utilize?
My therapeutic approaches are client-specific and tailored to meet your individual needs. I use an eclectic system that facilitates personal growth and positive change.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
I see clients of all ages but specialize in working with children ages 3 to 7 with challenging behaviors such as frequent tantrums and refusal to follow directions. Utilizing Parent-child interaction therapy (PCIT), I support parents by coaching and providing strategies to decrease behavioral concerns and stress. Other areas of expertise include Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), play therapy, and Trauma-focused cognitive behavioral therapy (TF-CBT).
